Shen Qigong class – 2023.02.16

Shen Qigong

The Shen Qigong classes is a mixture of Active and Passive Qigong. They are Spiritual in that they are working with the consciousness and can be used to alter states of awareness, giving access to higher levels of being and increasing perception. In addition to the Shen exercises we also incorporate Qigong from other sets (Shibashi, Ba Duan Jin, Connecting Heaven and Earth, the Orbits, etc.) so that a deeper understanding and more profound experiences gained from them. This means that the classes are often organic and they find a direction of their own, that direction governed by the needs and wishes of the participants.

Working with colour

• The Shen Qigong are used to expand awareness of Qi in order to experience it as fully as possible.
• This experience of Qi is then translated, by the Yi, into something that we can understand.
• That translation can be into tangible sensations, sight, smell, taste, sound, or a mixture of these.
• As well as the tangible sensations, most practitioners will have a dominant sense (sight, smell, taste, or sound).
• In this lesson we are using methods that can increase awareness of colour/images.
